The ability to tie a few useful
knots and splice a rope is useful to the farmer as well as to
the sailor, and at times to people in all walks of life. The
average person does not wish
to spend the time necessary to
learn a large number of knots,
but he should master a few of
those that are most useful, so
thoroughly that he can make
them at any time from memory.
There are several ways of tying
some knots and of making- some
of the splices and hitches, but
the beginner should confine himself to the one method by which
he can obtain the best results,
even though) it may not be the
way which the expert would
find quickest and easiest. Those
who wish to tie the simple
knots and make the splices of
use on the farm, may secure,-
free of charge, a copy of Bulletin 136 entitled Rope and Its
Use on the Farm, by addressing

"Where there is a cow, there
is a home," is a quotation worthy of being adopted as a slogan by every one who believes
in the American farm home.
The cow has paid the household
expenses of thousands of homes
for many years. The keeper of
a store in a new settlement was
but voicing what is true everywhere when he said, "Our farmers who keep cows, always
have money with which to pay
their bills what is more, they
no doubt, have a better living
and get more out of life than do
those who try to live from the
sale of hay and grain."
Naturally the kind of cows
that are kept, determines largely the kind of home the owner
has. There are good cows and
inferior ones. There are good
homes and homes that are not
particularly comfortable or inviting. Cows that make a pro-
tit for the owner certainly pro
vides him with a better home
and a better life. Usually, the
man who loves good cattle, will
love his home and family correspondingly more and will desire good things for his home.
Good cows will pay the expenses of the boys and girls at

Sleighs to Be Made Wider.
One of the new laws of Wis-
cousin aims at the widening of
every sleigh in that state.
The present width of sleighs
in Wisconsin is 88 inches. After
the first of next January, no
dealer will be allowed to sell a
sleigh less than 54 inches wide.
The object appears to be to
make sleighs and wagons the
same width.
The law applies to the owner
as well as to tlie dealer and any
person who after the tirst of
next purchases a narrower
sleigh and uses it anywhere in
the slate of Wisconsin is liable
to a $25 tine. It is assumed that
an attempt will be made to confiscate sleighs already in use
in Wisconsin or to tine the
owner for using sleighs bought
prior to January 1st.
Good road advocates who are
behind the new law say that the
wider sleigh is better for the
roads.

"Where there is a cow, there
is a home," is a quotation worthy of being adopted as a slogan by every one who believes
in the American farm home.
The cow has paid the household
expenses of thousands of homes
for many years. The keeper of
a store in a new settlement was
but voicing what is true everywhere when he said, "Our farmers who keep cows, always
have money with which to pay
their bills what is more, they
no doubt, have a better living
and get more out of life than do
those who try to live from the
sale of hay and grain."
Naturally the kind of cows
that are kept, determines largely the kind of home the owner
has. There are good cows and
inferior ones. There are good
homes and homes that are not
particularly comfortable or inviting. Cows that make a pro-
tit for the owner certainly pro
vides him with a better home
and a better life. Usually, the
man who loves good cattle, will
love his home and family correspondingly more and will desire good things for his home.
Good cows will pay the expenses of the boys and girls at
